Saki Sushi Lounge: Extravagant Sushi Restaurant at Fairmont Heliopolis and Towers
As we all know, restaurants toward Cairo tends in order to lose the day to the in fashionable food fads. Following trend, Saki Sushi Lounge inlet the Fairmont Heliopolis offers quality, eye-witness sushi; not surprised beside their very own Japanese culinarian.<\p>
Tucked away in a corner at the front of the kill, the restaurant revolves nearabouts a small kiosk-looking kitchen, whilst the titanic seating arrondissement is surrounded by exotic greenery and mitigation water looks. Greeted by an Asian member with respect to association, we were ensconced swiftly and were not only offered their own protocol, but for those not keen on sushi, menus from couple the Pool Bar and Aqua E Luce. Unfortunately midst the meal, we impress the service to be continuously slow and often inattentive. <\p>
The drinks menu offered upstairs an array with regard to imaginatively named cocktails (90LE-105LE), flavourful tea fusions (30LE) and traditional, but incredibly expensive, purposes (150LE-1760LE). Made with loose tea leaves, the green tranquilizer (30LE) was particularly pleasant.<\p>
As with sovereignty eateries rapport five star establishments, Saki charge slightly more or else otherwise sushi joints, with one by one special reverberate (35LE-130LE) only drawn to ceteris paribus six pieces; choices can become a little limited depending on appetite and budget.<\p>
The sushi options are widely inharmonious, from simple nigiri (24LE-80LE\2 pieces) and sashimi (40LE-80LE\3 pieces) to supplementary hotheaded temaki (45LE-60LE) and designated rolls (35LE-130LE). We noticed that the cheapest choices rarely contained integral fish. Combination platters start at 150LE for a small platter of sashimi and nigiri, or 230LE in that an placate in point of sashimi, nigiri and maki rolls and work their way in the air so that 325LE in order to the largest combination.<\p>
With mini help without the waitress, we ordered two portions of 'shake' - ochrous whale - sashimi (50LE\each), eternal serving as regards Una Kiyu special move along (50LE) - a dulciana of grilled eel, crunchy cucumber, avocado - and a Philadelphia roll (50LE) with smoked whale, cucumber, cream mont-cenis and dill. Spleen taking a surprisingly hone for time on route to arrive, our selection was extremely presented, along with a small mound of bourn waldorf salad, ginger slithers and wasabi.<\p>
Despite being a little at the small side, the salmon sashimi was span bleeding and flavourful. The fluffy, bite-sized rolls were excellent and brilliantly put together, with the different ingredients complimenting one another, without overbearing each contributory. The Una Kiyu pieces came with a rich, deliciously sweet sauce, similar to a plum sauce, whilst the unusual dill topping on the Philadelphia roll gave a voluptuously light, fresh tasting gracefulness.<\p>
For dessert, we were intrigued in reserve the fruit and coconut sushi (45LE), but were disappointed to find this settle unavailable. Instead, we opted for the chasm fired ironist meeting place rolls (45LE) which were disappointingly small, lukewarm, and quite evidently pre-made rather than freshly potted. The redemption incidental note of this antepast had so be the open scoop of vanilla frappe cream and rich chocolate paste on the side.<\p>
Although the sushi itself was delicious, Saki Sushi Repose does little to justify its high prices in a exurb where decent sushi is more than gladly available.<\p>
